TELL
Sends a message to another session.
Syntax
TELL{ [#] S nnn [ sessionname ,] username.acctname @ @. acctname @S } [[;] text ]
Parameters
[#]Snnn The session number as assigned by MPE/iX. This session number receives
the TELL message.
[
sessionname ] username. acctname The name of the session or user to receive the
message, and the account name to which the message is directed. This
parameter is the same as the session identity entered with the HELLO
command. Issuing a SHOWJOB command lists all the username.acctnames to
which you may direct a TELL message. Sessions with an active SETMSG OFF
command are listed as being in QUIET mode and do not receive your TELL
message. This is also true for a session on the system console. If several
users are running under the same session identity, MPE/iX sends the
message to all of them.
@ All sessions.
@.acctname All sessions under the account name established by the system manager.
@S All sessions. This is the same as the @ parameter.
text Message text, preceded by a space or a semicolon (;) and consisting of any
string of ASCII characters. The default is that no text is printed; however,
MPE/iX still prints the FROM message as follows:
FROM/ sessionid
